Whether used for tactical applications, outdoor tasks, or everyday utility work, the HUMINT is built to perform under pressure.

At the heart of this knife is a 3-inch blade crafted from CPM S45VN American steel. This high-performance stainless steel is widely respected for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and balanced toughness, making it a trusted choice for hard-use knives. At .15 inches thick, the blade offers a stout, confidence-inspiring build while still maintaining the slicing precision and control needed for detailed cutting tasks.

The blade features an acid splash finish that gives it a rugged, battle-worn appearance with unique visual texture across the steel. Beyond its aggressive look, the finish helps reduce glare and conceal wear from extended use, allowing the knife to maintain its field-ready appearance through demanding conditions and everyday carry.

The handle is constructed from black G10, a material prized for its strength, dimensional stability, and resistance to moisture and harsh environments. Secured with durable Allen bolts, the handle delivers a clean, tactical aesthetic that complements the blade’s dark finish. The textured grip pattern ensures a secure hold in wet, dry, or gloved conditions, giving users confident control during precision work or heavy cutting tasks.

Measuring 7.2 inches overall, the 3" HUMINT strikes an excellent balance between compact carry and functional cutting capability. Its ergonomic handle design fits naturally in the hand for improved comfort and reduced fatigue during extended use. Full tang construction provides maximum strength and durability from tip to pommel, ensuring the knife remains dependable through years of hard use.

A precision-molded Kydex sheath is included for secure retention and versatile carry options. Whether mounted to a belt, integrated into a kit, or carried discreetly, it keeps the knife protected and immediately accessible when needed.
